How Vinkius protects your data

Can I set different limits for each virtual assistant on my team?

Absolutely. You have full control in our command center. You can create an AI agent that only "reads" data so the support team can answer questions, and another superpowered agent that can "edit" and "create" information exclusively for your operations team. Each AI gets exactly the level of access you allow.

Can I get direct download links for research papers?

Yes! The oa_discover tool allows you to find downloadable resources like PDFs or XML files for articles in the PMC Open Access Subset using their PMCID.

What happens if the underlying API rate limits my agent?

Our edge infrastructure automatically handles backoffs, queueing, and throttling. If an AI agent sends too many erratic requests, Vinkius manages the rate limits gracefully, ensuring your backend doesn't crash.

Does the AI train on my tools or API data?

No. Vinkius enforces a strict Zero-Retention policy. Your data simply passes through our secure servers to complete the requested action and is instantly forgotten. Nothing you do here is ever stored, logged, or used to train any artificial intelligence.

Supported Use Cases for PMC Open Access (PubMed Central)

The PMC Open Access (PubMed Central) integration provides comprehensive execution endpoints, allowing AI models to orchestrate tasks reliably.

Scaling biomedical research via MCP

The PMC Open Access (PubMed Central) MCP integration translates natural language prompts into structured biomedical research queries. This allows agents to fetch and update knowledge management records securely.

LLM Orchestration for open access

Integrate PMC Open Access (PubMed Central) to access native open access capabilities. This allows LLMs to perform secure, deterministic execution of knowledge management tasks without hard-coded API scripts.
